“…Juga para manula yang dapat mendengarkan tawa riang anakanak, kelincahan dan gesitnya mereka, saat dihampiri dan diajak berkomunikasi oleh anak-anak dapat meningkatkan rasa percaya diri mereka yang mungkin sudah mulai pudar karena merasa jarang diperhatikan dan diperkenankan bercerita banyak hal mengenai perjalanan hidupnya (Morita & Kobayashi, 2013) (Marques, McIntosh, & Kershaw, 2019) . Interaksi fisik dan sosial ini harapannya dapat menjadi jembatan lintas generasi yang baik sehingga warga RW 05 baik anak-anak maupun manula dapat saling terkoneksi dan saling belajar (Washington, Cushing, Mackenzie, Buys, & Trost, 2019) (Nelischer & Loukaitou-Sideris, 2023). Hal ini sesuai dengan harapan dari warga RW 05 yang ingin memiliki ruang terbuka untuk aktivitas manula dan anak-anak.…”

Ruang terbuka publik di Kawasan RW 05 Kelurahan Sawojajar Kota Malang telah lama tidak dikelola dengan maksimal. Padahal keberadaan ruang publik di kawasan permukiman saat ini tidak hanya menjadi keharusan, trend, bahkan sudah menjadi agenda global seperti yang digaungkan UN-Habitat sebagai Public Space for All. Mengacu pada penelitian dan abdimas kami sebelumnya, teridentifikasi area terbuka publik di Kawasan RW 05 Kelurahan Sawojajar adalah seluas 1550 m2 yang kemudian terbagi menjadi beberapa segmentasi. Salah satu segmentasi merupakan area hijau seluas 700 m2. Harapannya area kosong ini digunakan menjadi taman terbuka baru yang sesuai demografi dan karakter warga yang didominasi oleh usia pensiunan/ manula dan anak-anak. Harapannya kehadiran taman nantinya dapat memberikan manfaat yang optimal dan berkelanjutan terutama dalam konteks sosial dan kesehatan lintas generasi tersebut. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengabdian ini merupakan pendampingan dan pertisipasi yang mengacu pada pendekatan design thinking melalui rembug warga. Hasil dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah desain taman manula dan anak di RW 05 Kelurahan Sawojajar, Kota Malang yang dapat diimplementasikan.

“…Moreover, the intergenerational public space approach emerged in response to an identified need to bridge age-friendly and child-friendly as well as social and spatial approaches. This was associated with several benefits, including individual health and well-being, social cohesion and solidarity, as well as community development (Nelischer, 2022). High-quality public spaces were discovered to be important for the enhancement of the sense of community for the residents in housing developments (Francis, 2012).…”

Kotagede is a traditional residential area designated as a cultural heritage area. The community is currently developing as a dense residential area and this is limiting the existence of public open spaces despite their importance to social interaction public activities. Therefore, this study was conducted to discuss the quality of public open spaces in Kotagede with a focus on the use and users, accessibility, amenities and furniture, comfort and safety, as well as environmental components through a qualitative method.The findings show that the highest indicator of use and users' aspect was found in location 1 out of the five locations analyzed, comfort and safety was in location 5, accessibility and amenities were also in location 1, and the environmental component was in location 2. Moreover, the variety of users, activities, and activity times discovered for the use and users' indicator showed that the social activities of Kotagede Settlement were driven by the ease of accessibility and amenities in location 1.

“…The literature presents design, procedural, and policy approaches to support generational interaction in public space. These include environmental design recommendations, such as offering tranquil spaces of retreat (Kaplan et al, 2007;Loukaitou-Sideris et al, 2016) and integrating activity spaces and features that provide a range of interests for different users (Larkin et al, 2010;Layne, 2009;Nelischer and Loukaitou-Sideris, 2022). The process through which IPS is created is important to their success; participatory processes engaging users of different ages in design, programming, and management may successfully balance the needs of different groups and foster a shared sense of responsibility and enthusiasm amongst users (Rigolon et al, 2015a;arki_lab, 2017;Sanchez and Stafford, 2020).…”

This article investigates the potential for intergenerational public space in the Westlake neighborhood of Los Angeles. Through a series of site observations, focus groups, interviews, thick mapping, and participatory design exercises, we work with 43 youth and 38 older adults (over 65), all residents of Westlake, to examine their public space use, experiences, and desires, and identify where the two groups’ interests intersect or diverge. We explore the potential for complementary approaches to creating intergenerational public space using the principles of Universal Design. In doing so, we emphasize the importance of taking an intersectional approach to designing public space that considers the multiple, often overlapping identities of residents of historically marginalized communities predicated by disability and age, in addition to race, class, and gender. Our findings yield insights for creating more inclusive and accessible public spaces in disinvested urban neighborhoods as well as opportunities for allyship between groups whose public space interests have been marginalized by mainstream design standards.
